Just watched the trailer on twitter.
The video shows the "S&W 44 Russian" being loaded with cartridges.
I assume then this isn't an obsolete calibre then?
Therefore it is illegal as he has bought it into the country without a licence.
Oops.

Their 'argument' is that the calibres are obsolete but can be made by the evil band of hand loaders who have specialist skills.Originally Posted by Zomboid
But once the ammo is made an offence occurs unless you have that ammo on your fac. And firing the gun makes it no longer a curio and needs to go on an FAC.
Enough laws. One man broke them and was prosecuted. We have enough laws.
It doesn't help that the 'expert' knob jockey from NABCO (or whatever they are called) lied to parliament and said all the components are available to buy without a license and can be sent mail order. WRONG!

.44 Russian is obsolete
It is however just another very common current cartridge slightly shortened and there lies the problem.
The other issue is if you are caught with an antique pistol as long as you haven’t got ammunition you are committing zero offences even if it’s in your pocket on the high street.
A man can always use more alcohol, tobacco and firearms.

Thanks Richard for clearing that up.
Will watch tonight.
Where's his User name?
I just seen the ad on tv for this... it looks like the BBC storey up shite again... I have a feeling it will be so riddled with half facts and lies that it will be very painful to watch
